I'm pretty rusty on Hagstroms now, but years ago I loved their tone cause it was so different than what my Fender and Gibson ears were used to, and yet it had balls. I'd love to find an old one now and set it up for lap steel.

Weren't the Hagstrom string trees of the variety that all the strings went under? I have a similar one left over from a '60s Kent that I'd like to install on my Ernie Ball electric which has truly lousy headstock geometry.

Tinker, tinker, tinker...

Peace, Mooh.
